A Brief Primer on Yemen

Here’s a very short synopsis of the situation on the ground in Yemen.  Money quote: “If you think Afghanistan is a sinkhole, you will love Yemen.”

Oh, and there’s this about Al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula which is based in Yemen:  “Savvy in delivering its message, the group even has its own magazine, Salah al Malahim (The Echo of Battle), which covers everything from biographies of suicide bombers to advice columns on how to become an Al Qaeda foot soldier.”

Great.
